You can update your API keys and provider settings by running:
zev --setupTo use OpenAI, you need an OpenAI account and a subscription. You can create an API key on this page.
To use Google's Gemini models, you need a Google AI Studio account. You can create a Gemini API key in Google AI Studio.
You can use Zev with Ollama as an alternative to hosted providers, which lets you run all commands locally. To set this up:
-
Install and start Ollama with a model of your choice
-
Run
zev --setupand put in the proper settings. For example:
? Pick your LLM provider: Ollama
? Enter the Ollama URL: http://localhost:11434/v1
? Enter the model to use (e.g. llama3.2): llama3.2
Note that to switch backends, you can re-run zev --setup again at any time.
